Discussed in https://github.com/WordPress/developer-blog-content/discussions/267

^{Originally posted by **ndiego** June 3, 2024} This article will provide an introduction to [overrides in synced patterns](https://github.com/WordPress/gutenberg/issues/59819#top), a new feature coming in WordPress 6.6. The article would cover the following: - Explain what synced pattern overrides are and demonstrate how they work from a user perspective - Explain how they work under the hood and their connection to the Block Bindings API - Show how to create overrides with a couple examples - A brief overview of what is on the roadmap for overrides in 6.7+ and links to relevant resources _The actual article title needs some work._
